Case: Why the Sincere Man Failed to Heal the 3 Bs?

Bartonella, Babesia, and Borrelia (Lyme)

A businessman was slowly getting worse with fatigue. Recovery from exercise, long conversations, and work took longer and longer.

A friend told him about a center with a functional medicine orientation that could help. He went. They did labs that included Lyme testing at that location.

“You do not have Lyme,” the doctor said.

And each year he was sicker and sicker.

1. The lab was poor.
2. Only Lyme was tested, as if tick guts are sterile except for Lyme.
3. No awareness that Bartonella is passed to people by 12+ biting insects.
4. No awareness that Bartonella is vastly more common than Lyme bacteria.
5. Only believed cured from past Lyme disease by medicines that only kill the active form.

I will avoid five more.
